Why Smoothies Are Great For Busy Mums

The life of a busy mum never stops! And eating well is crucial for our health and energy levels as well as losing any unwanted kilos. Although in our Healthy Mummy range of products we have an Exercise DVD, our Chocolates, our Fish Oils, our 28 Day Plan and our Cookbooks, one of the biggest selling products we produce is our Healthy Mummy Smoothie range – which is 96% sugar free, 100% fructose free and 100% artificial sweetener free. And we thought we out outline why it is very different to other products out there and what makes it so special and why for a busy mum, having a Healthy Mummy Smoothie can be a great addition to your day – plus if you are a breastfeeding mum they are safe for use in breastfeeding.

They are great for a busy mum’s brekkie

Our research shows that over 50% of mums skip breakfast due to being too tired to make it or not having enough time to make it.

Needless to say this reeks havoc with the metabolism, health and weight loss of mums all over the country and if mums found just 2 minutes to make a smoothie for breakfast they would feel healthier, have more energy and find weight loss a lot easier

It is accelerant and filler FREE

We are proud to say that our Smoothie is free from any fillers and weight loss accelerators. Many many weight loss shakes contain fillers and weight loss accelerants to trick your body into short term – and unhealthy weight loss. These artificial fillers make your tummy feel temporarily full are not natural and the long term effects are not known. They can also lead to a lot of the side effects associated with ‘shakes’.

It contains wholefoods

The Healthy Mummy Smoothie contains wholefoods and over 25 vitamins and minerals. The product is high quality and every ingredient in the smoothie has been included to be a benefit to your health. Most shakes do not provide this high quality and the reason you will see many ‘giveaway’ offers on TV with these brands is because their product is extremely cheap to make and do not use the wholefoods and high quality vitamins and minerals that we do – so it is very cheap to make and their product is topped up with sugar and fillers to bulk it out.

It is dairy and wheat free

Today many people have allergies to dairy and wheat so our smoothie is free of both of these ingredients. We use non genetically modified Soy Protein Isolate which uses only the protein part of the soy – not the oestrogen part of the soy.

It is breastfeeding friendly

We do not use any caffeines or weight loss accelerants in our smoothies so that breastfeeding mums can use it. We also included fenugreek in the smoothie to be an additional benefit – and if you are not breastfeeding, fenugreek can still be a great benefit to your health as it provides carbohydrates, dietary fibre, fats and minerals like iron, calcium and phosphorous. We have thousands of emails each month from mums on our plans who report improved milk supply from using our smoothies, but if your baby has any food sensitivities or suffers from colic we recommend talking to your Dr before changing your diet or using our products and plans. And you can read more on this from the ABA here You can click here to read some stories of mums who have sent in results of increased milk supply on our smoothies.

It is a formulated meal replacement & passes international standards

Our smoothie is a formulated meal replacement and has passed International Food Standards. It provides your body with over 25 vitamins and minerals and the focus is on optimal nutrition. Some other ‘shakes’ on the market are only a protein shake or supplement. This means they cannot be used as a meal substitute as they do not contain enough nutrients and energy to fuel your body and consumers can often be mislead into thinking a product called a Shake is a meal replacement when it is not.

It has helped mums lose over 500kg (results may vary)

Mums all over the world, love our smoothies. And they are great for getting lots of nutrition into your body if you are too time poor or tired to cook a meal. And mums also like to use them in conjunction with our 28 Day Diet & Exercise Plan – which is also breastfeeding friendly. You can see hundreds of results from mums on our plans here

What ingredients are in the Smoothie?

The smoothies are free from artificial sweeteners, additives, fillers, caffeine and weight loss accelerants Included in our smoothies are:

Soy protein isolate (non GM) – a complete protein low in fat with high digestibility. The protein is a soy protein isolate – which means the protein has been isolated and the oestrogen and hormone part of soy is not included in the product – only the protein part of the soy

Methionine 10mFg – important amino acid for normal metabolism

Protease (from aspergillus) – group of enzymes that assist digestive process by breaking down proteins

Soy lecithin 400mg (non GM) – emulsifying that can aid the digestive system

Bromelain 5mg – enzymes from pineapple assisting protein digestion.

Herbs For Your Health – during a weight loss diet, herbs can help to maintain a feeling of general wellbeing:

Ginger root – a spice often used to improve metabolism while soothing the stomach

Fenugreek – Provides carbohydrates, dietary fibre, fats and minerals like iron, calcium and phosphorous. It also provides support for breastfeeding mothers

LOW GI: as part of a weight loss diet, low GI foods help to release glucose more slowly leading to a more stable blood glucose level. Natural ingredients in our smoothies help give a gentle sensation of feeling fuller for longer, helping to avoid eating large meals or over snacking. They help to bulk the stool & aid bowel eliminations. We do not use any artificial sweeteners in our smoothies and use a small amount of thaumatin – which is a natural plant based sweetener to sweeten the smoothie – you can read about this here.
